THE BEATLES
"BEATLES FOR SALE" PARLOPHONE PCS 3062 STEREO PRESSING
RELEASED DECEMBER 4th 1964
STAMPERS 4 RTA 1/7 OM MATRICES 142-1 143-1
THIS PARTICULAR PRESSING IS FROM A VERY LIMITED RUN OF MISPRESSED STEREO LABELS
THE VERY FIRST STEREO PRESSINGS OF THIS RELEASE CAME WITH "PARLOPHONE" RIM TEXT "SOLD IN THE UK" AND "RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED" LABEL TEXT WITHOUT ANY ERRORS TO THE LABELS
ONCE THESE EARLY LABELS HAD RUN OUT EMI SWITCHED TO "GRAMOPHONE" RIM TEXT WITH "SOLD IN THE UK" LABEL TEXT BUT NO RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED
AS THE ALBUM WAS SELLING IN HUGE NUMBERS (ADVANCE SALES OF 500,000 RISING TO 750,000 A WEEK AFTER RELEASE) ERRORS WERE INITIALLY MADE ON THE NEW STEREO LABELS BUT ONLY FOR A VERY BRIEF PERIOD
THOSE ERRORS WERE SIDE 1 TRACK 2 " I'M A LOSSER" INSTEAD OF " I'M A LOSER "
SIDE 2 TRACK 1 "EIGHT DAYS A WEEK" NORTHERN SSONGS (SONGS HAS AN EXTRA 'S')
LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION JUST SOME LIGHT CREASING TO THE EDGES ( HARD TO SEE IN THE PICTURES) AND A FEW SMALL CREASE'S ON THE PINCHED END SPINE BUT ALL THE SLEEVE TEXT AND THE IMAGES ARE LEGIBLE AND THE OUTLINE STEREO DESIGNATION IS VISIBLE TOP RIGHT
EMITEX INNER IS AGAIN IN CLEAN CONDITION SOME LOW LEVEL FOXING TO THE WHITE AREAS BUT AGAIN ALL THE TEXT IS LEGIBLE
VINYL RECORD RETAINS A DEEP GLOSSY SHEEN TO THE SURFACES THERE ARE SOME VERY LIGHT HANDLING MARKS TO BOTH SIDES BUT NOTHING I WOULD CONSIDER FEELABLE ,LABELS ARE CLEAN AND BRIGHT AND THE CENTRE HOLE IS UNWORN
AUDIO WAS EXCELLENT WITH QUIET RUN INS AND SPACES AND A REAL PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO AS STEREO COPIES OF BEATLE ALBUMS EVEN BACK IN 1964 WERE HARD TO FIND
THIS IS A RARE ALBUM IN STEREO BUT IT ALSO CONTAINS BOTH LABEL ERRORS AND DOES NOT TURN UP VERY OFTEN
